Company Assessment

F grade in the Baptist World Aid Australia's 'Ethical Fashion Report 2019', which grades companies, from A to F, on the strength of their systems to mitigate against the risks of forced labour, child labour and worker exploitation in their supply chains, as well as protect the environment from the harmful impacts of the fashion industry. Assessment criteria fall into five main categories: policies, transparency and traceability, auditing and supplier relationships, worker empowerment and environmental management.[Source 2019][More on Workers Rights]

According to investigations by Humane Society International (HSI) in 2011, fur vests sold by Wish were found to contain dog fur from China, despite being labelled 100% rabbit fur. Importation of dog or cat fur is illegal in Australia. Wish continued to sell the vests despite being advised of HSI's test results. Further investigations also found extremely high levels of toxic hexavalent chromium in a Wish fur vest. [Source 2011][More on Animal Rights]
